Sunday Brunch viewers were full of praise as they tuned into the latest episode of the Channel 4 show
Sunday Brunch returned with a new episode on 22 June, witnessing some significant changes as Channel 4's beloved show introduced a fresh face to the hosting team.
Audiences were treated to an array of guests including Rosie Jones, Tim Key, Fleur East, Gavin Rossdale, and Nicky Campbell, alongside appearances from Jeremy Pang, Allie Sherlock, and Susannah Fielding.
While Simon Rimmer resumed his regular role leading Sunday Brunch, Tim Lovejoy was noticeably missing from the latest episode, leaving a spot for a guest co-host.
Stepping in, TV star Vicky Pattison joined Simon in presenting the programme and promptly impressed viewers with her vibrant contribution.

One viewer tweeted: "Joke about Vicki all you want, but its good to have some feminine energy co-presenting and female POV on the sofa while chatting with the guests. #sundaybrunch @SundayBrunchC4 @VickyPattison."
Another fan stated: "What a breath of fresh air @VickyPattison is #SundayBrunch," while someone else mentioned: "I honestly don't think Tim should go, but having Vicki is a nice change from two bald blokes being blokey and exciting only really by any footie talk #sundaybrunch."
On Instagram, praise continued as a user exclaimed: "Best presenting duo ever, Vicki should do more on Sunday Brunch. She's just what's needed for a Sunday morning."
A different admirer suggested: "Yay, @vickypattison should be on every week please."
On Instagram, two days before her Sunday Brunch appearance, Vicky announced that she would be joining Simon Rimmer on the show as a co-host, revealing her excitement to her followers.
"I HAVE SOME EXCITING NEWS!" she posted. "As a long time friend of @sundaybrunchc4 it is an absolute HONOUR to be wearing a slightly different hat this week! I will be joining my good pal @rimmersimon as his co host while the lovely @timlovejoy_official has a very well deserved break!"
"I am buzzing like an old fridge to chat to all of our gorgeous guests, eat some delicious food and hopefully give anyone watching and nursing a hangover a bit of light comedy reprieve. See you bright and early Sunday my loves... and wish me luck."
Sunday Brunch airs every Sunday on Channel 4 at 10am
